End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues

Chapter 236: An Overwhelming Crisis



After butler Farmer successfully connected to Kean's uncle, he proceeded to recount in detail all the events that had transpired over the past few days.

Butler Farmer had initially believed that Kean's uncle would place great importance on the information he provided.

However, to his surprise, Kean's uncle merely responded in a nonchalant manner, saying, "I am already aware of the information you have shared. Just continue to keep an eye on Kean."

"If nothing more significant arises, there is no need for you to call me again. I have an abundance of pressing matters to attend to at the moment."

After finishing this statement, Kean's uncle abruptly hung up the phone.

Butler Farmer found himself momentarily at a loss regarding what actions to take next.

After contemplating for a while, butler Farmer returned to Kean's bedroom.

"Young master, I have informed your uncle about your situation. However, it seems that he is not particularly concerned about your current state."

Butler Farmer was aware that the relationship between Kean and his uncle was far from amicable.

Thus, he hoped to provoke Kean through this approach.

It was likely that in a fit of anger, Kean might divulge information that butler Farmer was not privy to.

However, Kean was certainly not one to fall for such a ploy easily.

With a smile on his face, Kean replied.

"My uncle must have a great many important matters to attend to, which is why he lacks the time to check on me. I am not bothered by this."

Since Kean had expressed his sentiments so clearly, butler Farmer had no further remarks to make.

"The doctor I arranged for you will be arriving shortly, he will assess the extent of your injuries."

Upon hearing these words, Kean nodded in acknowledgment.

Butler Farmer had no reason to linger in Kean's bedroom any longer.

Ultimately, butler Farmer could only exit and await the doctor's arrival.

The doctor arrived at Kean's villa after about ten minutes.

He conducted a thorough examination of Kean and ultimately concluded that there was, in fact, nothing seriously wrong.

"Mr. Kean, your injuries are merely superficial. With a couple of days of rest and some healing salves, you will be just fine."

After making his assessment, the doctor left behind some medication and then took his leave.

While the doctor was speaking, Kean kept his gaze fixed intently on butler Farmer.

He sought to ascertain the true intentions behind butler Farmer's actions.

Kean did not believe for a moment that butler Farmer's sole purpose was merely to serve as an informant for the upper echelons of the Lannisters. It was clear to him that butler Farmer must have his own ulterior motives.

Moreover, butler Farmer's interests were evidently aligned with his own personal gain, which did not always coincide with those of the Lannisters.

However, butler Farmer had consistently maintained a posture of vigilance in Kean's presence.

As a result, Kean was unable to discern any signs of deceit or ulterior motives from butler Farmer.

After the doctor departed, butler Farmer went off to attend to other matters within Kean's villa.

Now, Kean could take the opportunity to reach out to The Son of the Sun and The Person in the Mirror.

Suddenly, the enormous mirror in Kean's bedroom emitted a radiant golden light. As the golden glow faded, the figure of The Son of the Sun emerged within the mirror.

"Why have you contacted me? Have you perhaps obtained some information of great significance to us?" The Son of the Sun expressed a slight sense of dissatisfaction toward Kean.

To The Son of the Sun, it seemed as though they had only just parted ways a short while ago.

The two individuals should indeed be occupied with their own affairs at this moment.

Kean nodded in acknowledgment.

"You are correct, the reason I reached out to you is that I have obtained some crucial intelligence. However, before I divulge this information, you must answer one question for me."

Kean swiftly approached the mirror.

His injuries had completely healed, and even the wounds on his skin had mended.

The expression on The Son of the Sun's face grew increasingly discontented.

"Was it not you who initiated contact with me? Why, then, must I answer your question after you have reached out to me?"

"My question is actually quite simple. I merely wish to understand why my uncle has ceased to pay attention to me. This situation is rather peculiar.

After all, in his eyes, I have always been the one most likely to get into trouble among the Lannisters. He should be keeping a close watch on me."

Kean paid no heed to The Son of the Sun's dissatisfaction, he simply posed his inquiry.

Upon hearing this question, The Son of the Sun burst into laughter.

"The answer to your question is quite simple, your uncle is currently facing an overwhelming crisis. He can no longer afford to pay attention to you."

As The Son of the Sun provided his answer, he projected an image beside Kean.

In the image cast by The Son of the Sun, Kean could clearly see a multitude of high-difficulty instances emerging in the suburbs of the capital. Moreover, the monsters from these formidable instances had broken free and were running rampant.

The federal leadership and the various prominent families were all exerting themselves to combat these suddenly appearing, powerful creatures.

Kean's uncle had been in constant communication with the upper echelons of the Lannisters, and he was also collaborating with other federal leaders.

In such circumstances, it was only natural that Kean's uncle had no time to concern himself with Kean.

Upon receiving The Son of the Sun's response, a sense of relief finally spread across Kean's face.

"So that's how it is! In any case, the fact that he can no longer focus on me is, in essence, a good thing for me." Kean remarked with a smile.

He then turned his gaze towards The Son of the Sun.

"The crucial intelligence I wish to share with you pertains to the federal leadership. They are planning to mobilize numerous powerful Awakened individuals to eliminate the instances associated with solar power."

As soon as Kean revealed this intelligence, the expression on The Son of the Sun's face swiftly turned grave.

"You are not deceiving me, are you? Why would the federal leadership take such action?"

"I assure you, I am not deceiving you. The rationale behind the federal leadership's actions is quite straightforward, they believe that only the instances associated with solar power are easily manageable."

"The other high-difficulty instances pose a significant challenge to confront, and even if the federal leadership mobilizes all the powerful Awakened individuals at their disposal, they may still struggle to eliminate the other high-difficulty instances in a short period."

The intelligence that Kean provided was information he had just recently stumbled upon.

Kean not only had allies within the Lannisters, but he also boasted connections among other federal leaders.

These allies of Kean had relayed the information to him with remarkable speed.

"Are you not considering taking action? If all the high-difficulty instances related to solar power are cleared away, surely your plans will be adversely affected, will they not?"

Kean was uncertain about the implications of the removal of solar power-related instances on the plans of The Son of the Sun and The Person in the Mirror.

Thus, he could only inquire in a tentative tone.

However, Kean was indeed being somewhat overly cautious.

No matter what tone he used to speak with The Son of the Sun, The Son of the Sun would not be excessively concerned.

This was due to the fact that The Son of the Sun had already been stunned to an extraordinary degree by the information Kean had provided.

"We must thwart the actions of the federal leadership! Both The Person in the Mirror and I have offered you considerable assistance thus far, now it is time for you to aid us."

The Son of the Sun implored Kean urgently.

Kean nodded in acknowledgment. "I am certainly willing to provide you with assistance. However, what exactly should I do? The decisions made by the federal leadership are not easily altered."

In response to Kean's counterargument, The Son of the Sun became enraged.

"You are human, and you are also a member of the Lannisters. Your understanding of the federal leadership should surpass ours. Shouldn't it be your responsibility to devise a solution?"

As The Son of the Sun expressed this in anger.

All the furniture in Kean's bedroom began to tremble violently.

The Son of the Sun had projected his power out of the mirror.

Kean certainly felt the force emanating from The Son of the Sun, but he did not feel fear.

This was because Kean understood that The Son of the Sun and The Person in the Mirror needed to collaborate with him in order to have a chance to resolve the current crisis.

"Your anger is of no use at this moment. I might be able to conceive a solution. However, my solution will undoubtedly require your assistance."

Kean's mind raced swiftly.

He hoped to seize this rare opportunity to secure greater benefits for himself.

He aimed to leverage his current statements to compel The Son of the Sun and The Person in the Mirror to grant him additional power.

Before Kean could continue with the thoughts he had already formulated, The Son of the Sun spoke directly.

"We will certainly provide you with assistance! As long as we can stop the federal leadership's actions, we are willing to go to any lengths! Furthermore, should your plan succeed, we will offer you a very generous reward."

The Son of the Sun had lost his capacity for calm judgment.

He was even unable to discern that Kean had ulterior motives.

Upon hearing The Son of the Sun's words, a smile crept onto Kean's lips.

"That statement alone suffices! I will formulate a complete plan within the next two days. Let us reconvene after those two days."

With that declaration, Kean took the initiative to end the conversation with The Son of the Sun.

The Son of the Sun did not insist on remaining in the mirror in Kean's bedroom, for he also needed to verify the authenticity of the information Kean had provided through other channels.
